Hello, everyone. This may not be a big deal to some of you. Go ahead, click off. This is for people who want to make Windows 10 VB look like Windows 7
As you guys can already tell, The uDWM.dll patch specifically made for restoring rounded corners and small caption buttons is officially broken by the latest Windows 10 22h2 build. (19045.3803)
This means that, if you apply the uDWM patch from Alcatel's pack while being on that specific version of Vibranium, DWM refuses to start. Resulting in a black screen with a mouse cursor. The only way
to revert the uDWM patch is to use Command Prompt in WinRE via Notepad or if you are more experienced, CMD commands or something similar.
This officially means that if you are on this exact build of Windows, You are stuck with large caption buttons.
===THE SOLUTION===
Only solution (tested by Me and Brawllux): winclassic.net/thread/1988/dwm-pre-19045-3803
For people who have a 7 setup with the uDWM patch, that want to update to this version for reasons like ExplorerFrame, DO NOT. Instead, Use Aerexplorer. If you update, the uDWM patch will get
reverted to its original version, and you cannot install the patch again.
This also reminds us that we have to make sure that updates are disabled correctly, I have disabled Windows Update using gpedit.msc and Services. I do not know how Windows managed to update.
===FOR THOSE WHO WANT TO CONTRIBUTE===
Send your patches here. Help the people who do not wanna replace DWM for some reason
===FOR NOW...===
That is all, until someone creates a solution then we are practically doomed in this case. Anyway, that's all for now.
